The protagonist may also develop relations with NPCs. There are also many characters the protagonist can communicate with in this sense the game has similarities to RPGs, although there are no attributes or skills to improve. The game is an open-ended first-person shooter featuring a thirty square kilometer playing area which the player is free to explore. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is inspired by the science fiction novel Picnic on the Roadside (1977) by the Soviet Russian authors, the brothers Arkadi and Boris Strugatsky. After being rescued by another stalker, he discovers himself in a village located on the outskirts of the Zone, with only a single clue: he has a note in his PDA telling him to kill an unknown person with the nickname "Strelok". The player controls a stalker who has lost his memory in an accident. Military organizations have been formed, fighting for dominance in the Zone. Despite that, the Zone attracts scientists, explorers and scavengers (known as "stalkers") hunting for valuable artifacts. These anomalies differ in their effects, but they all have one thing in common - they are deadly. By the year 2012 the area, which was dubbed "Zone", has become hazardous with mutated animals, bandits, and mysterious anomalies. In an alternate timeline, following attempts to repopulate the area, another unexpected accident occurred twenty years later. The Ukrainian town of Chernobyl was the site of a severe nuclear accident in 1986.
